The Mobile-Pack Story:A need becomes a business

The Mobile-Pack story began in 2006 when Kay Washington was looking for a convenient carrying case as an alternative to a bulky cleaning cart. She couldn’t find anything suitable to hold both cleaning supplies and room replenishment items. So she invented one, and Mobile-Pack was born.

Today, Mobile-Pack is used by many of the world’s leading hotels. Hoteliers have discovered that its smaller footprint makes it easier for staff to move quickly for efficient cleaning, and its discreet appearance leaves an impression on guests looking for an upscale experience. It’s also ideal for use when cleaning offices, large multi-room houses or estates, and extended stay apartments.

Kay Washington

Partner

Kay Washington has a 20 year proven track record for finding creative business solutions to challenging business issues. For example, in her experience opening hotels nationwide, she discovered that a solution was needed for more efficient delivery of supplies in Housekeeping services. Kay developed the solution when she failed to locate one in the market, leading her to become an inventor and business owner for Mobile-Pack. The product is now being sold through American Hotel Register Company and other worldwide distributors directly to luxury brands.

Her passion is in the hotel industry and she has maintained a strong and genuine commitment to helping owners and General Managers realize success at the property level. She has been promoted routinely for her efforts by demonstrating success at the department and division head level.

Her most recent role has been supporting the Renaissance Seattle Hotel as its Assistant General Manager. In her tenure as Assistant General Manager, she has already begun to exemplify the strong business acumen which has been the foundation of her prior successes.

Kay has established a positive track record for helping to improve revenue and profit, which has increased year over year for six consecutive years. Additionally, she has established inspiring training programs to motivate all staff to deliver excellent guest service, building upon her personal service philosophy, for which she has received recognition from Mr. Bill Marriott, Jr. himself. Kay has used her genuine passion for the hotel industry to fuel her success and through her strong sense of integrity and her ability to think outside of the box, she will continue to lead her colleagues towards success.

The pack is easy to lift up and down and transports easily. It is very durable, lightweight and well-constructed. I encourage anyone in the cleaning industry to try this product. You will not be disappointed.

My timeshare customer’s widespread property requires housekeepers to travel from building to building in golf carts. They were packing their amenities and cleaning items into boxes and plastic maid caddies to transport them, but it wasn't working well. I introduced my customer to Mobile-Pack® caddies. It was exactly what she’d been looking for. Her housekeepers loved them, and the best part is that my customer now views me as a consultant and comes to me as a problem solver.

The St. Regis Resort currently uses Mobile-Packs® for all of our room attendants, turndown staff and public area attendants. The Mobile-Pack® is very suitable for mid-sized luxury hotels and I’ve recommended this item to several colleagues.
